Nintendo Online's latest batch of NES games comes to Switch next week

The next batch of NES games to come to Switch as part of Nintendo's online subscription service will arrive next week, on December 12th.

There's no mystery as to what's coming, however, seeing as Nintendo announced its 2018 line-up months ago. As previously revealed, December's offerings take the form of Wario's Woods, Ninja Gaiden, and Adventures of Lolo.
